Standing on the podium of the mixed doubles curling at the Winter Games.
It is of special significance to the Fujian team.
This is not only the Fujian delegation.
The first medal after the opening of the "Fourteenth Winter".
It is also the foundation of the Fujian curling team.
The first medal at the Winter Games.
The Fujian curling team is in the history of Fujian Province.
The first provincial team in ice and snow sports.
In the mixed doubles final of the 14th National Winter Games (referred to as the "14th Winter") curling (open group) held on the 20th, Fujian team Wang Zhiyu and Zhu Ze Yangxu defeated Heilongjiang team Ba Dexin Jiang Yilun in overtime and won the runner-up 6:7.
In the final, the Fujian team led three times, although it was a little regrettable to miss the championship in the end, but Li Hongbo, the coach of the Fujian curling team, said that it was a surprise to win the runner-up.
Compared with Ba Dexin, who created the best result of the Chinese team in the Winter Olympics curling mixed doubles, and Jiang Yilun, the former main player of the national team, Wang Zhiyu and Zhu Ze Yangxu are slightly inexperienced. However, as a young team, they made great progress in the first game of the Winter Games, winning seven consecutive victories in the round-robin stage and finally finishing second.
Before the game, we were ready to bite into the eighth game, and we had a good grasp of the score in the early stages, and although we lost, we learned a lot. ”
Born in 2002, teenager Zhu Ze Yangxu participated in the National Winter Games for the first time, but he has already shown a calm temperament in the competition. "I was nervous at the beginning, but my teammates and coaches kept encouraging me and let my success rate gradually improve. I still have a lot of shortcomings, so I can accumulate experience through competitions, summarize problems and continue to work hard. ”
The opponent Jiang Yilun highly affirmed the performance of the two young players, believing that their skills are stable and mature, and they play very carefully; Coach Li Hongbo was also full of praise for the players, praising them for withstanding the test, playing very consistently in every game, and showing their abilities.

Curling is a traditional sport in Northeast China.
The Fujian team, which has not been formed for a long time, has achieved such results.
Let the outside world develop ice and snow sports in the southern provinces of China.
There's more to look forward to.
Li Hongbo said that before and after the Beijing Winter Olympics, with the implementation of the "North Ice South Exhibition" and the expansion of the achievements of "driving 300 million people to participate in ice and snow sports", Fujian Province vigorously developed ice and snow sports, and used the Putian Sports Center Ice Sports Center as a professional curling training base in the province to cultivate reserve professionals.
In addition to building professional venues, the training level of the Fujian team has also "reached a higher level". Li Hongbo, a former professional curler, said that compared with the previous training methods, the Fujian curling team will refer to the training methods of foreign coaches, and in addition to physical training, it also pays attention to improving the technical and tactical level and psychological quality of the players through games and post-game analysis, and the training methods are more diverse.
Industry insiders believe that the development of ice and snow sports in southern China has gone through a process from scratch, but the most important thing is "yes". Wang Zhiyu said that their silver medal may help the sport of curling develop in the southern provinces.
In fact, with the help of the "14th Winter", Fujian Province has long planned to promote the development of curling in the province. Li Hongbo said that due to the late start, the Fujian team is currently focusing on joint training and talent introduction. In the new cycle after the end of the "14th Winter", the Fujian team will pay more attention to the cultivation of local talents, and strive to allow local athletes to participate in the youth group competition of the next Winter Games.
'Fourteen Winters' is an important node to promote the popularization of curling in Fujian. After that, the venue and facilities will be improved to attract more athletes to train. Li Hongbo said.
